Indigenous Artist C.J. Houle

Cody James Houle (he/him) is an Anishinaabe/French artist based out of Brantford. Houle’s family ancestry are Anishinaabe from Saugeen First Nations.

Houle was raised in the small military city of North Bay, Ontario. In his youth he was immersed in intergenerational trauma. His family had been disenfranchised, and his father, as a child, had been displaced by the Children’s Aid Society. 

As a result, his father suffered from a lifetime of substance abuse, and Houle grew up in an unsafe environment.

Houle had to generate his own sense of security and survived through a deeply intimate connection to nature and a motivated desire to create something meaningful in this life.
